Welcome to  the cabrio winter drivers club ,Mate.
I usually leave the seat tilted forward to stop it going on the seat itself, and just let it drip onto the back then

My hood is only 18 months old, and it still does it. the roof has no guttering, so the water needs to flow somewhere - usually straight onto the seat!!

same problem! compounded  by a horizontal split in the fabric each side. I dont want to spend out on a new hood until easter so i've tried gaffer tape and solvent free evo-stik but nothing sticks to the hood, except dirt! should i just use mud and horse hair or is their a better way. I think i used a pair of old pvc boots and general purpose glue on my old spitfire III but i cant remember :-\
